But the terms are different: "designer" and "designery" - the latter  
refers to "the sort of thing designers might like", the former to  
"something designed by a designer".

"designery" is a bit strange to me because it implies some sort of  
homogeny amongst the taste of all designers which isn't shared with  
the general population.
